The millennium dragon is a made up monster.

Pegasus greeted us and explained how to get to the finals. When he was done, he looked at me once his eye lowering to my wrist and then he walked away too fast to be relaxed. I wish I could see his face, his emotions. I shrugged it off and went to start my duels. A few hours later I decided to take some rest. If this was the skill of the whole tournament then I didn't even have to bother to play. Then I knew who would be in the finals. Yami and Joey, Pegasus and me. Soon I found some rest after beating another one and gaining my final star-chip. really it's so boring to me. "Hey, Yuri." I was almost tackled from behind. Since I still didn't like it I stomped my attacker and flung him over my shoulder.

"N-nice move." Joey said holding his stomach. Tristan helped him up and Yugi watched. I saw Yami next to him in spirit form. He was laughing. It reminded me of his birthday.

Flashback

Then a hand clapped suddenly on my shoulder. I pulled it off of me and pulled the one attached to it over me on the floor. I hate it when people do that. It was Shada.

"Ugh, Hello Sahra nice move." he grunted. Someone laughed. that sound... It's Yami! I spun around and saw Yami sitting on his throne laughing really loud and Shimon was looking surprised as if he saw Yami laughing for the first time. at least today.

End Flashback

Yami disappeared after he calmed down and his eyes widened in surprise. I think he remembered this too though he probably doesn't remember it was me. I had seen that Joey had a few more star chips too and Yugi too. Ryou had come with them too. "Hey Yuri how are you doing so far?" Yugi asked. I showed both my hands open palms and then pointed to a star-chip. "Wow, you have ten star chips already?" I nodded and yawned in a bored manner. "Well then we shall meet again in the finals then, you promised me a duel." he said determined.

"Hey guys what are your favourite cards?" Ryou asked.

"Mine is dark magician." Yugi answered.

"Mine is magician of faith." Tea showing that card. It was a useful card to have.

"Mine is the flame swords man." Joey showed his card.

"I think mine is the cyber commander what about you Yuri?" Tristan asked.

I showed my card the millennium dragon (ATK/DEF 3000/3000)

"Wow, I've never seen that one before. is it rare?" Joey asked. I nodded.

"How many are of that one in the whole world?" Yugi asked. I pointed one finger up. "Wow, so it's extremely rare then. You must be very careful with it." He thought out loud. I nodded again. Then Bakura showed his card (change of heart.) Then he suggested a friendly duel against Yugi. It was my brother who suggested this so I knew that something would happen. I was right when Yami took over and the others fainted. I decided to sleep while they had their duel.

Soon enough the sun hit my eyes. I woke up to see Yugi was back as himself and the others were fine too. I sighed in relief and left while they slept. Suddenly a boy was trying to steal my deck. I took his hands when that guard that looks like Tristan came with another one. The boy hid behind me. He was being kidnapped. I used my Item to protect him while I beat the guards up. I knocked one out with a stomp on his chin and the other got a kick in his groin. Then I knocked him out by hitting his temples. The boy was watching me in awe. He uncovered his mouth and "Thank you. What's your name?" I did once again my sign of not being able to speak.

"I see do you know sign language?" he asked. I nodded then I signed my name. "Nice to meet you Yuri, My name is Mokuba Kaiba. Can I stay with you until my brother comes?" he asked. I nodded again I wouldn't mind some company. We walked around while Mokuba talked. I was glad he knew sign language which he told me his brother insisted he learned. When I asked who his brother was I was surprised with his answer. "My brother is Seto Kaiba CEO of Kaiba corp."

'so Seth's bloodline came to Japan too. I'm not really surprised.' we walked to the castle where I showed my star-chips. the man was hair guy, he thought I would beat him up again so he cowered away from me. Mokuba laughed loudly and I joined him forgetting that I couldn't make a sound. "You CAN use your voice." He stated.

I lowered my head. "I have a special reason why I don't talk. My heart is too broken by my lover's memory-loss. I made the vow to not speak until he remembers me." I told Mokuba honestly.

"Do I know him?" he asked.

"In a way. I can't tell you if you are as close minded as your brother probably is."

"Try me."

"Okay but you have to promise to keep it a secret." Then I proceeded with telling him my story, I even showed him my Item's powers. He never once said I was crazy.

"So, Yugi has a pyramid shaped puzzle which contains an ancient Pharaoh's spirit and there are seven other items like his. One of them is yours and is made by the Egyptian gods. The Item's have the power to stop evil from taking over the world. The Pharaoh was your lover when he was alive. You were a goddess who wasn't accepted by her mother's husband as you were a bastard-child and you were banished to the human world where you were found by a woman who in the end was the mother of a king of thieves, the enemy of the Pharaoh." I nodded.

"wow." he exclaimed.

"well that's the basics there is so much more."

"Then why don't you tell him everything? That way he'll remember you and you can use your voice again." I shook my head.

If I tell him he might not believe me, and if he does, he will have to return to the spirit world. You call it heaven. Yugi has to help him find the light inside him and Yami has to help him be more self-confident and be more assertive. Otherwise I would've told him already.

"I see, then couldn't you tell him just a little?"

"That might work. Come we have to find a room and wait. What was Pegasus going to do with kidnapping you?" He told me that Pegasus was using him to get to his brother's company. We found a room while he explained everything. He got to bed while I read the rules of the finals. Soon I got on the couch and fell asleep.
